I typically look at Phish albums as a baseline for jam vehicles in a love setting, but sometimes its nice to hear a nice studio work.

From a songwriting, and studio, perspective, I would call Farmhouse and Billy Breathes the high water marks. Given that the band, and their fans, have referred to albums as a "necessary evil," I think the band has had some decent moments in the studio.

yeah, I agree with your take on the albums, and their purpose.

I've just been listening to so many shows the past 15 years, that to hear the studio versions was funny.

I'm a fan of the studio stuff. Hoist might be my favorite, but Farmhouse is nice too

Hoist is good as well. I also think Round Room is kind of underrated. Cool idea how they made the album in a couple weeks. Some of these songs (46 Days, Seven Below, Pebbles and Marbles, WotC) haev insane jams in a live setting
